Trivision Eye Hospital utilizes advanced Ultrasound A-Scan technology for precise eye diagnostics at our Mumbai facility. By emitting high-frequency sound waves, the A-Scan provides essential data for accurate diagnoses and tailored treatment plans.
This non-invasive test is the gold standard for measuring the axial length of the eye. This measurement is critical for:
Our commitment to using the best diagnostic tools ensures that every patient receives the most accurate IOL selection for optimal vision restoration.
Its primary use is to measure the length of the eye (axial length). This number is plugged into a formula to calculate the correct power of the artificial lens (IOL) needed during cataract surgery.
No. We use anesthetic eye drops to numb the eye surface so you won't feel anything. A small probe gently touches the front of the eye or the eyelid to take the measurement. It takes only a few minutes.
The IOL Master uses light (optical biometry) and is non-contact, while the A-Scan uses sound waves (ultrasound). We often use the A-Scan when a patient has a very dense cataract that light cannot penetrate.
